surface area divided by volume
To calculate the surface area of a shape find the area of each side, and then, add all of the areas together. The sum of the areas is the surface area.
The surface area of a sphere = 4*pi*radius2
Since a parabola is an open infinite curve, the area inside it is infinite.
The same way you calculate the surface area of any other rectangle: Multiply the length of the wall by its height.
